NOMADS

On the small server front, there's groups running right now in ARK and Rust.



Rust has a fresh map this week and Corley and Kuda have just started building.



On ARK, we've just wrapped up the winter event and a few of the group have started in on end bosses. We'll be continuing there for a while and are looking forward to the next holiday and soon, the next expanded map for Ascended.



WoW

WoW Retail, Patch 10.2.5 Seeds of Renewal is coming January 16 with lots of changes.

Night Elves are building their new capital, Bel-Ameth in the World Tree Amirdrassil and Alliance and Horde players can visit, although Horde will have a buff warning that they're being watched... especially fire mages. There are new Night Elf tabards, cloaks and weapons there as well as new Night Elf children NPC's.



Worgen leader Genn Graymane is also taking his people back to their former capital, Gilneas.



Dragonriding is coming to every zone in WoW where flying is possible -- but at 8...
